CLICK'D

Narrator Suzy Jackson brings a deft middle school tone to this story of online gaming gone awry. When Allie creates a new game, called Click'd, at CodeGirls summer camp to help her schoolmates get acquainted by sharing common interests, she's talked into releasing the game before completing her testing. Excited when her app goes viral, Allie is soon horrified to learn that a glitch in the coding is sharing information that is much too personal, embarrassing several of her friends. Now she's forced to fix the glitch, with the help of her archrival, Nathan, before presenting the game at a big coding competition. Jackson keeps the excitement going and the tension building with her energetic pacing and youthful characterizations. S.G. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2018]
